mem upgrade

Ok, ran every possible combo of memory using both slots.

May results where such: 2x2 3.99GB, 2x4 5.99 GB, 4x4 would not boot

up. All 2x4 combos where the same as was the 4x4 combos. Re-flashed

BIOS no help. Suggestions. . .

If this is about the Inspiron 1720 you asked about before, you now know why the system supports 2X2 G or 4G total, max.

Please re-read my post. Thus far I am utilizing 6GB. Dell claims it can use 8GB. Might want want to re-think your reply. :emotion-5:

Hi retiredcowboy,

The Inspiron 1720 is shipped with 4GB Memory capability. The specifications of the system should handle 8GB Memory however; we have not tested the system with 8GB memory on it. Since you already are using 6GB Memory on the system, I would suggest you to go ahead and try using 8GB and check if it works.

Please let me know in case of any queries

Thanks and regards
